Each row is one product from one pharmacy, shown in the pack size with the lowest price per unit; its other pack sizes are listed under “other pack sizes”. Price per unit = the pack price divided by the units in the pack, before shipping; we sort by it and don't assume how long a pack lasts. Total with shipping = the pack price plus the pharmacy's shipping fee for one order. Prices checked Nov 11, 2026 on each pharmacy's website, in U.S. dollars (converted when a pharmacy prices in Canadian dollars). The lowest price at the top of this page uses only packs whose maker the pharmacy names, or whose product country and ships-from country it states. Prices change often; confirm at checkout. U.S. rows: the cash price a U.S. pharmacy published on its own website on the date shown, plus its standard shipping; no insurance or discount cards.

Brand Pyridium lists at $443.43 for 100 tablets of 100 mg and $570.13 for 100 tablets of 200 mg (Texas DSHS). Amneal also sells plain phenazopyridine tablets, listed at $32.00 and $48.00 for 100 tablets in the same filing. Because people take only a few days' worth, you usually need far fewer than 100 tablets. List prices are what makers charge wholesalers; what a pharmacy charges you can differ.

In 2026, Part D plans can charge a deductible of up to $615, and once your out-of-pocket spending on covered Part D drugs reaches $2,100, you pay nothing more for covered drugs for the rest of the year. Ask your plan whether it covers Pyridium or phenazopyridine.

Is there a generic Pyridium?
Yes, but none is FDA-approved. Plain phenazopyridine tablets (100 and 200 mg) are sold by Amneal and other companies. FDA drug listings show them, and Pyridium itself, as marketed without FDA approval, so they are not FDA-rated generics.

| 200 mg | Yes | Amneal, Chartwell, Winder, Genus and others (not FDA-approved) | — |

What is Pyridium used for?
Pyridium (phenazopyridine) is a dye that numbs the lining of the urinary tract. According to its label (DailyMed), it is used:
- For short-term relief of pain, burning, urgency, frequency and other discomfort from an irritated lower urinary tract, for example from infection, injury, surgery or a catheter.
Pyridium only eases symptoms; it does not treat the cause, such as a bladder infection. The label says the usual adult dose is two 100 mg tablets or one 200 mg tablet 3 times a day after meals, and no more than 2 days when used with an antibiotic for a urinary tract infection. It turns urine reddish-orange and can stain fabric and contact lenses. The label says people with kidney problems should not take it. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Pyridium from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and Pyridium is also sold in Canada. Federal law generally doesn't allow individuals to import prescription drugs, though under its personal importation policy the FDA has long used enforcement discretion for some personal-use shipments, generally no more than a three-month supply (FDA). Congress has said enforcement against individuals should focus on imports that pose a significant threat to public health (Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act section 804(j)(1), 21 U.S.C. 384(j)(1)). You need a prescription from your doctor. New U.S. Customs rules for mailed orders start January 20, 2027. Health Canada lists Pyridium 100 mg tablets as marketed by Searchlight Pharma; the 200 mg tablet is listed as dormant (Health Canada).

Frequently asked questions
How much does Pyridium cost?
The U.S. list price of brand Pyridium is $443.43 for 100 tablets of 100 mg and $570.13 for 100 tablets of 200 mg, in the Texas 2026 drug price filing. The pharmacies we compared charged from $2.15 per tablet for brand Pyridium 100 mg before shipping in our latest check (Nov 11, 2026).
Is there a generic for Pyridium?
Plain phenazopyridine tablets are sold by several companies, and Amneal lists them at $32.00 to $48.00 for 100 tablets. But neither Pyridium nor these tablets has FDA approval, so the FDA has not rated any of them as equivalent. Ask your pharmacist.
Can I buy Pyridium over the counter?
Brand Pyridium (100 and 200 mg) needs a prescription. Lower-strength phenazopyridine, about 95 to 99.5 mg a tablet, is sold over the counter as urinary pain relief. Ask your pharmacist which is right for you.
How much does phenazopyridine cost?
In the Texas 2026 drug price filing, Amneal lists 100 tablets of phenazopyridine at $32.00 for 100 mg and $48.00 for 200 mg. These are list prices (the maker's wholesale price before discounts). Most people need only a few days' worth, so ask your pharmacist for the cash price of a small fill.
Why does Pyridium turn urine orange?
Phenazopyridine is a dye. The label says it turns urine reddish-orange and can stain fabric and contact lenses.
Can I buy Pyridium from Canada?
Yes, Pyridium is sold in Canada: Health Canada lists Pyridium 100 mg tablets as marketed by Searchlight Pharma. U.S. import rules apply, and phenazopyridine is low-priced in the U.S., so compare before you order.
